    Linux question

    Ok....I did a search, but I got a lot of general info.

    The problem: MacroSuck Internet Explorer

    I want to get rid of any instance of IE. I run Foxfire. However, sometimes when I click on a link, it brings up IE. I want it to bring up Foxfire.

    So...is it possible? Anybody have a link?

    Thanks


    PS-I hope everyone is successfully recovering from New Years Eve.

    I suspect that you yourself have not quite successfully recovered, since that sounds very much like a Windows question, not a Linux question, and FoxFire sounds very much like FireFox.

        Hello,

        this is a very strange Problem:

        Notebook hang instantly on Boot. BIOS is accesable.
        Windows: instant after showing "loading circle", even Windows Boot Stick hang instant (even without installed SSD/NVME )
        Linux: instantly (if Linux Boot in leagacy Mode with log messages: Machine Check exception after 0.25 sec)

        i have tried:
        - only one RAM Stick, another working RAM, both RAM channel
        - BIOS Flash to newest Version F.50, BIOS Reset
        - Memtest86 hang instant at Test 2
        - HP UEFI Diagnostic wont find...

        Requests to Intel Flash Programming Tool for Linux Ubuntu x86_64
        by tsavpyn
        Dear all,
        I forgot my BIOS password of my Surface Pro 3, I searched for solutions for a long time and knew that by using FPT to dump my bios to bin file and using decryptor, I can get my BIOS password.
        Now I have a problem that I am unable to dump my BIOS into bin file.

        My Surface Pro 3 currently runs on Ubuntu 22.04, with Secure Boot enabled and Boot From SSD Only.

        I searched for FPT but there is no Linux version and none of them work.
        I hereby request a copy of Intel Flash Programming Tool for Linux x64.
        I would really appreciate it if anyone...

        MS Surface Book 3 - Keyboard works only in UEFI/Linux
        by survivalbloke
        This is a very weird issue which I'm having trouble finding a common thread.

        The keyboard is registering keypresses in either the UEFI, or a live Linux USB environment - I used Ubuntu for testing. The keyboard backlight is lit.

        The keyboard is registering keypresses in Windows or any Windows-related bootable device. For example, it does not work in Hirens Recue or a Windows 11 bootable installer.

        When booted to Windows, not only is the keyboard not registering keypresses, but my USB keyboard is not either!

        SPD reading/writing under Linux and/or Windows
        by keepread
        Hi all,
        Where can I find the mysterious 'eeprom' kernel module that some use under Linux to read/write SPD?
        I installed 'i2c-tools' and got 'decode-dimms' tool under Debian but not under Fedora, but both of them are missing the 'eeprom' module.
        Also tried the SPD.exe tool from EVGA, which correctly lists all of the DIMM slots but reads zeroes from all of them.
        Basically I need to dump SPD from some modules that were sold to me as DDR-1866 but are made of DDR-1600 chips, and they do not work. There is no access to RAM clock rate in the BIOS, so I am SOL unless I can rebin...
